God Is For Us

"If God is for us, who can be against us?
He who did not spare his own Son
but gave him up for us all,
how will he not also with him (Christ) graciously give us all things?" Romans 8:31b-32

Thank You Father, that you are for us. You are not against us; You are not against us at all. Forgive us for believing the lies the enemy whispers to our hearts that You - our Saviour! - are against us. What a crazy, twisted thought! Help us to be aware of the fact that it's the enemy who is against us but You are for us! How great is that!

For you say,
"Are not two sparrows sold for a penny?
And not one of them will fall to the ground apart from your Father.
But even the hairs of your head are all numbered.
Fear not, therefore; you are of more value than many sparrows. Matthew 10:29-30

You're mindful of each little bird that falls. You have a tally of how many hairs are attached to my scalp -knowing how many went down the shower drain and how many were left in my hair brush. Minute details! Surely, my concerns are known to You then. Surely Your eye is on me - the one You gave Your only Son for - and You care for me!

You say "Fear not, therefore." Because of my great value (in Your loving eyes), and your infinite care, knowledge and wisdom, greatness, power and authority, You say I don't need to be afraid.
So, Father, right now I give You this concern - this fear - that's been on my mind and heart. (I've brought Him mine. You tell Him yours as well - each one.)

You often say, "Don't be afraid! or "Believe!" Father, help me to believe Your great and precious promises that You've made to us as your children. May we believe YOU! Not our feelings, not our past negative experiences, not the lies, but only You. Speak truth to me about my concerns/fears.

Bring my heart into the truth. Help me to walk in confidence that You love me, and that Your care for me is so great, that at any second of any day You know the trivial of how many hairs are on my head.

Let's trust God together and encourage each other to trust Him. He is so very worthy of our trust.
